The 2008 Midnight Warrior is the meaner, darkened version of the standard Warrior. If the casual silver/ chrome cruiser looks on the Warrior were not enough, the grim, shiny Midnight should quench your thirst for evil bikes. Loaded with the same 1670cc V-twin power unit, the Midnight Warrior will put to shame a ton of competitors thanks to its massive torque available right off idle and upper range revving power deployment.
Sporting a lightweight aluminum double-cradle frame sitting on adjustable, top-class Kayaba suspensions, the 2008 Midnight Warrior also boasts supersport-inspired rims for an even more aggressive look and better street performance. If power and mean design are what you're looking for in a cruiser, the 2008 Star Warrior might be the right choice.
